SEOUL, Feb. 10(Yonhap) -- Netflix announced on Feb. 10 that "All of Us Are Dead" has accumulated a total viewing time of 361.02 million hours until Feb. 6 since its release on Jan. 28, ranking No. 5 in Netflix's non-English TV series category.
Netflix generally counts the cumulative viewing time of the new series based on 28 days following its release, and “All of Us Are Dead" broke the record of the work ranking No. 5 in 10 days.
The first place went to “Squid Game,” which recorded 1.6545 billion cumulative viewing time for 28 days after its release, while “Money Heist” Part 4, Part 3, and Part 5 each ranked No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4.
Following the first week of its release, "All of Us Are Dead" entered the TOP 10 in 94 countries around the world in the second week, and was named the most watched series on Netflix for 2 consecutive week in the English and non-English movies and TV categories.
Moreover, it remained high in the Netflix TV show category on Flixpatrol, a streaming analytics firm, for 11 days from the day after its release to Feb. 9.

This broke the record of “Hellbound,” which topped the chart for 10 days in a row. “Hellbound” ranked No. 1 a day after its release, but stepped off to the second place the next day, and went back to the first place for 10 days from the third day.
However, the number of countries that topped the chart with "All of Us Are Dead" has been decreasing since it set the highest record of 59 countries on Feb. 3. The show remained in the first place in 42 countries, including Korea, Japan, France, Greece, Russia, and Brazil.
As the series gained popularity, the weekly views of the original author Joo Dong-geun's Naver webtoon of the same title increased by nearly 80 times from the average before the drama was released.
"All of Us Are Dead" depicts the story of students struggling to survive in a high school where the zombie virus has spread.
